Black Lives Matter Toronto Extorts Pride Parade and 'Wins'

Their demands also included a commitment to increase representation among Pride Toronto staff.

Black Lives Matter Toronto, which was invited by Pride Toronto to help lead this year's parade, brought the procession to a standstill until a list of it's demands were met.

The activist group presented a list of demands at a sit-in halting the city's massive Pride parade for about 30 minutes Sunday, demanding that Toronto police floats and booths be barred from Pride marches, parades and community events.
